Effect of Freezing-Thawing on Clayey Soils Reinforced with Human Hair Fibers
Journal of Natural Fibers, 2020 The reinforcing of fine-grained soils using natural or synthetic fibers has been successfully applied today. The use of waste human hair fibers among natural fibers is seen as a sustainable solution as a reinforcing material.

Activity of nAChRs containing α9 subunits modulates synapse stabilization via bidirectional signaling programs [PDF]
, 2009 Although the synaptogenic program for cholinergic synapses of the neuromuscular junction is well known, little is known of the identity or dynamic expression patterns of proteins involved in non-neuromuscular nicotinic synapse development.

Efferent control of the electrical and mechanical properties of hair cells in the bullfrog's sacculus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Hair cells in the auditory, vestibular, and lateral-line systems respond to mechanical stimulation and transmit information to afferent nerve fibers. The sensitivity of mechanoelectrical transduction is modulated by the efferent pathway, whose activity ...

Lack of evidence for sprouting of Aβ afferents into the superficial laminas of the spinal cord dorsal horn after nerve section [PDF]
, 2003 The central arborizations of large myelinated cutaneous afferents normally extend as far dorsally as the ventral part of lamina II in rat spinal cord. Woolf et al. (1992) reported that after nerve injury some of these afferents sprouted into lamina I and

A frequency-selective feedback model of auditory efferent suppression and its implications for the recognition of speech in noise [PDF]
, 2012 The potential contribution of the peripheral auditory efferent system to our understanding of speech in a background of competing noise was studied using a computer model of the auditory periphery and assessed using an automatic speech recognition system.

Contralateral inhibition of click- and chirp-evoked human compound action potentials [PDF]
, 2017 Cochlear outer hair cells (OHC) receive direct efferent feedback from the caudal auditory brainstem via the medial olivocochlear (MOC) bundle. This circuit provides the neural substrate for the MOC reflex, which inhibits cochlear amplifier gain and is ...

Looking into ‘hair tonics’ for cotton fiber initiation [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2020 SummaryCotton fiber is the most important source of cellulose for the global textile industry. These hair‐like single‐celled trichomes develop from ovule epidermis. They are classified into long spinnable lint and short fuzz. A key objective in the cotton industry is to breed elite cultivars with fuzzless seeds carrying high lint yield. Molecular basis

A computer model of auditory efferent suppression: Implications for the recognition of speech in noise [PDF]
, 2010 The neural mechanisms underlying the ability of human listeners to recognize speech in the presence of background noise are still imperfectly understood.

USAGE OF HORSE HAIR AS A TEXTILE FIBER AND EVALUATION OF COLOR PROPERTIES [PDF]
Annals of the University of Oradea: Fascicle of Textiles, Leatherwork, 2019 The usage of horse hair as a textile material can be traced to the old ages. Although many animal hair fibers have lost their importance due to the introduction of synthetic fibers into our lives, special fibers such as horsehair have been able to ...
